128 teams have played 84 games apiece, with six to go until we cut the field in half. We went from 13 spots having been clinched to, by my rough count, 25 teams having punched their tickets to the postseason. We're still stuck on two group winners in the 1927 Yankees and 1967 Cardinals, though we'll probably see at least one or two more groups determine winners in this round. There are a lot of tight races, but my favorite probably has to be the three way tie between the 1975 Reds, 1924 Senators, and 1952 Yankees at 54-30 atop Group D.
Meanwhile, there is still a fight for the top record in the entire tournament. The aforementioned '27 Yankees and '67 Cardinals are currently in the lead with 59-25 marks through 84 games. Those 59 wins match what the 2016 Cubs pulled off in the 2017 tournament and barring neither team caring about the final six games, both will top 60 wins, with the '44 Cardinals can hit that plateau with a .500 week and a few other teams if they win out can hit 60 as well.
